It will be fair to say that Liverpool did not sign a single proven quality star in the summer transfer window. Still, after three PL games, they are the only team with the perfect record.
Without a shadow of a doubt, the Reds have one of the best squads in the world and they held on to all the key players in the summer, which is extremely important.
Transfer: Report – Liverpool interested in signing £90million attacker next summer
In the past year, the Merseysiders have agreed long term contracts with their stars and if reports in the media are anything to go by then they are close to securing a new deal with their record signing as well.
According to an exclusive story covered by 90min, Virgil van Dijk is set to agree a fresh contract with the European Champions that will make him earn £250,000-a-week i.e. £13million-a-year
The former Southampton man signed for Liverpool for £75million in January 2018 and he has been immense. Last season, the Dutch international deservedly won the PFA Player of the Year award and was world class in our Champions League winning campaign as well.
He is a rock solid center half, who is also productive in the attacking third as he directly contributed in 10 goals last term (6 goals and 4 assists). He also found the net against Norwich City in the opening game of the new season.
The 28-year-old is arguably the best defender in the world, who might even win the Ballon d’Or this year. He surely deserves a bumper pay-rise at Anfield.
